Hydraulic clutches are similar to
hydraulic brakes . They consist of a
clutch master cylinder reservoir ,slave
cylinder and a hose I can't remember if
that slave cylinder is in the bell housing
at the clutch or external but look for
signs of external leaks of fluid under the
vehicle . I'd start under the hood at the
reservoir where you fill woth fluid and
travk that line to the slave cylinder . If it's
in the bell housing look for signs of fluid
at amd around transmission
/bell.housing .of you can n ot see any
leaks open your drivers front door , look
up under dash board behind pedals ,pull
back the rubber mat or carpet and see
of you have fluid coking down the
firewall and up under carpet /mat . If so
you need to replace the clutch master
cylinder ...it's usually 2 bolts /1 line .not
very difficult . Then have some one help
you bleed the air out of the systems
when you have it replaced amd refilled .
If slave cylinder is in bell housing you
will see a bleeder screw coking from the
side of the bell housing loosen that
screw wait for fluid to start dripping
close bleeder screw (make sure you
check fluid after each operation ,they
don't hold much and if you run it empty
you will have to start bleeding the
system all over again . After the initial
dripping starts .refill ...have some one
ouch on the clutch slowly as you begin
losses ing bleeder screw you should see
a few bubbles /air .then tighten bleeder
screw also. Make sure who ever is
working the clutch pedal only depresses
and releases the pedal on your mom
and as in depress.pedal and hold it
down until you loosen and retigyten
.then they can release .or again you will
introduce air into the system if they
don't follow your directions .. Good luck

So just the other day i put my honda passport into drive and everything seemed normal but after driving a block or
so the transmission seemed to just stop working and the engine just rev'd up and did...
